Do you remember when you first spoke to your valentine? I certainly do. Hubby and I met on a blind date, so our first contact was via telephone and his voice...

*swoons*

I can honestly say I fell in love with his voice first. Even now 28 years later that voice of his, especially when he drops it to that growly whisper and.... anyhoo I digress, as per ususal.

*winks*

Suffice to say he will always by my Valentines :-)

For today's snippet I'm brininging you the moment in my story Under his Protection where my H/H first talk to each other. Jacqui has been lusting after her sex-on-legs-bad-boy neighbour for some weeks now, so, naturally, the first time he takes any sort of interest in her she's in her comfy snowflakes onesie with not a speck of make-up on her face.

In her words: Come to think of it, surely there ought to be a law against meeting any hunk dressed the way she was.

*sniggers*

Under his Protection is part of the Dominant Persasions Anthology, which I'm incredibly excited to be part of. Just look at the list of fabulous authors!

Here are your seven.

She must have imagined that, however, because in the next instant he’d blinked and stepped away.

“See you around, little dove.”

With a jaunty wave, he’d taken the stairs three at a time, instead of the lift, and disappeared from view, leaving her a drooling, panting mess at the bottom of the staircase.
